LCAP

Local Control and Accountability Plan

On July 1, 2013 the state of California enacted legislation that changed the funding formula for all public schools. The new Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) “creates base, supplemental, and concentration grants in place of most previously existing K–12 funding streams, including revenue limits and most state categorical programs.”

All county offices of education, school districts and charter schools are required to create accompanying Local Control and Accountability Plans (LCAP) that set forth their educational goals, actions to achieve them and the funding tied to them.
